Chicago examiner and the ameri can seem to be the only news papers that present the compre hensive subway proposition fairly i rw*ihe campaign of all but two of chicago's daily newspapers against the comprehensive subway project and in favor of the dinky downtown subway has reached a stage of bold ; mendacity and unscrupulous misrepresentation the like of which has never been seen before i am wondering what motives can be actu ating them there seems to be a bellwether morning and a bell wether evening paper that take the leadership in the campaign of lies and misrepresentations the Chicago examiner and the Chicago american seem to be the only newspapers that are printing the truth in this matter and that present the comprehensive subway proposition fairly and impartially to the public this statement was made at the blackstone hotel yesterday by walston h brown the new york engineering contractor who with j norton griffiths of london has offered to build a 150,000,000 comprehensive municipally owned rapid-transit sub way system in Chicago mr brown was preparing to leave for new york where he is to hold further conferences with mr griffiths who before leaving for the east friday night took occasion to criticise six of the chi cago newspapers for false statements about the offer made by him and mr brown for the construction of comprehensive subways in this city harrison joins in protests mayor harrison last night added his protest to those of mr brown and mr griffiths against the subway misrepresentations of a section of the Chicago press personally i don't give a rap for anything that the bunch o old-time traction interest serving newspapers may say or do saic the mayor the leading morning paper of the bunch persistently misrepresents everything for which my administration stands ii its present campaign against the comprehensive subway it is over doing itself only to-day it has the hardihood to accuse me in an editorial of harboring a purpose to keep the downtown subway proposition off the little ballot when the fact is that i am circu mating the petitions for that project my position on subway mat i ters is unchanged i simply want the people to decide by referen dum vote whether they want the comprehensive rapid-transit sub way or the dinky one absurd falsehood is cited i consider the falsehood that a 10-cent or 15-cent fare may be asked in the proposed griffiths-brown subway ordinance as particu larly absurd those financiers are not so silly as to propose more than a 5-cent univeral fare they know the 5-cent fare is the limit that j the people of any american city would stand for mr brown was specific in his complaint against the morning ! and evening newspapers that are campaigning to confine subway building to the dinky downtown tunnels which could only be used by the present surface street car lines the only way to describe adequately the newspaper mis representations is to call them lies said mr brown mr grif fiths was astounded at the bald misrepresentations of our offer and he did not hesitate to express his feelings on the matter points out three lies in the morning bellwether of the pro-traction press there are three glaring lies here they are : lie no iâ€”'the1 â€” the two men did not say whether they intend to charge 5 cents 10 cents or 15 cents a ride the truth is that in the letter mr griffiths and i sent to mayor harrison yesterday afternoon this unequivocal statement is made the rates of fare shall be the same as in all cities of the united states â€” that is they shall not exceed 5 cents for

examiner and the Chicago american seem to be the only newspapers that are printing the truth in this matter and that present the comprehensive subway proposition fairly and impartially to the public this statement was made at the blackstone hotel yesterday by walston h brown the new york engineering contractor who with j norton griffiths of london has offered to build a 150,000,000 comprehensive municipally owned rapid-transit sub way system in Chicago mr brown was preparing to leave for new york where he is to hold further conferences with mr griffiths who before leaving for the east friday night took occasion to criticise six of the chi cago newspapers for false statements about the offer made by him and mr brown for the construction of comprehensive subways in this city harrison joins in protests mayor harrison last night added his protest to those of mr brown and mr griffiths against the subway misrepresentations of a section of the Chicago press personally i don't give a rap for anything that the bunch o old-time traction interest serving newspapers may say or do saic the mayor the leading morning paper of the bunch persistently misrepresents everything for which my administration stands ii its present campaign against the comprehensive subway it is over doing itself only to-day it has the hardihood to accuse me in an editorial of harboring a purpose to keep the downtown subway proposition off the little ballot when the fact is that i am circu mating the petitions for that project my position on subway mat i ters is unchanged i simply want the people to decide by referen dum vote whether they want the comprehensive rapid-transit sub way or the dinky one absurd falsehood is cited i consider the falsehood that a 10-cent or 15-cent fare may be asked in the proposed griffiths-brown subway ordinance as particu larly absurd those financiers are not so silly as to propose more than a 5-cent univeral fare they know the 5-cent fare is the limit that j the people of any american city would stand for mr brown was specific in his complaint against the morning ! and evening newspapers that are campaigning to confine subway building to the dinky downtown tunnels which could only be used by the present surface street car lines the only way to describe adequately the newspaper mis representations is to call them lies said mr brown mr grif fiths was astounded at the bald misrepresentations of our offer and he did not hesitate to express his feelings on the matter points out three lies in the morning bellwether of the pro-traction press there are three glaring lies here they are : lie no iâ€”'the1 â€” the two men did not say whether they intend to charge 5 cents 10 cents or 15 cents a ride the truth is that in the letter mr griffiths and i sent to mayor harrison yesterday afternoon this unequivocal statement is made the rates of fare shall be the same as in all cities of the united states â€” that is they shall not exceed 5 cents for one single ride any distance a copy of our letter to the mayor was deliiered to this newspaper but it printed only a few gar jle^_j_(_iil * e ** etter f i , atch > \ Chicago and vicinity un jjsrx t
